The Science of Nanostructure Acoustic Vibrations.

Annu Rev Phys Chem

January 2025

Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana, USA;

Ultrafast excitation of nanoparticles can excite the acoustic vibrational modes of the structure that correlate with the expansion coordinates. These modes are frequently seen in transient absorption experiments on metal nanoparticle samples and occasionally for semiconductors. The aim of this review is to give an overview of the physical chemistry of nanostructure acoustic vibrations.
